Byron,
I agree with you that MPEG is unlikely to be a scam.
Perhaps the IR person Mark talked to did not know
all the facts.

Also, it is not necessary to actually build a chip to
know that it will work. I just talked to a chip
expert at my company, who told me that there are
very sophisticated CAD (computer aided design)
and simulation tools that can predict the performance
of chips before they are built.

It is also possible that the stock has gone up
because of the possibility that IBM, CUBE, or INTC
will buy MPEG just for the chip design and patents.

Mark said that he didn't like the fact that the IR person
wants to know how he heard of them, and that they have
multiple people answering calls. I think these things are
perfectly normal, considering the recent increase in investor
interest.
